Honourable Knight Returns to Lingfield
We were obviously really pleased with how well Makhfar ran yesterday, just not quite getting up after being well ridden by Nicola to be both settled and to overcome a modest draw; and on a macro level that the string are running well. Makhfar, who arrived at Rowdown in February, should not be far away from the Winner's Enclosure the next time he runs.
As I touched on yesterday today another of our grand servants makes a comeback when Honourable Knight returns to the racecourse this afternoon at Lingfield for only the third time in almost three years; the winner of nine races and placed 12 times from 54 starts he, like Black Truffle, is a great person to have at Rowdown. Also like Black Truffle we probably can’t expect him to be particularly wound up this pm but he is fit enough to run and we are looking for him to comeback safe and sound.
